Definitions
- maintaining strong component adhesion to dielectric material is critical in ensuring signal integrity, quality, and reliability.
- Varnish manufacturing companies currently utilize dielectric-to-component adhesion methods that involve the direct mixing of adhesive additives into the varnish of a composite resin that forms the dielectric component. After the resin is cured, the adhesive additive molecules in contact with an embedded component can form covalent chemical bonds—thereby increasing the adhesion between dielectric and component. With this method, only the surface molecules on the dielectric surface are available for chemical bonding and the large fraction within the bulk of the dielectric material remains unutilized. Because the material properties of the bulk resin can be adversely affected at a certain weight percent of adhesion additive, varnish manufacturers are limited to the amount of adhesion that can be introduced at the dielectric-to-component interface.

After the resin is cured, the adhesive additive molecules in contact with an embedded component can form covalent chemical bonds—thereby increasing the adhesion between dielectric and component. With this method, only the surface molecules on the dielectric surface are available for chemical bonding and the large fraction within the bulk of the dielectric material remains unutilized. Because the material properties of the bulk resin can be adversely affected at a certain weight percent of adhesion additive, varnish manufacturers are limited to the amount of adhesion that can be introduced at the dielectric-to-component interface.

- The present invention provides numerous advantages over conventional industry techniques, some of which are unexpected. For example, various embodiments of the invention allow for direct surface treatment on either the dielectric layer or silicon die. This directly targets the interface of interest and increases the amount of adhesive promoter molecules at the adhesion interface. The surface treatment or adhesion layer described herein prevents dispersion of the silane molecules within the dielectric layer, which ensures the material properties of the dielectric layer will not be altered by increasing the amount of adhesion promoter within the dielectric layer—a major limitation of conventional methods.
- The increased amount of adhesive promotors at the interface also results in increased proximity of adjacent adhesive promotors. The increased proximity can lead to crosslinking between adjacent adhesive promotors forming a siloxane network. The crosslinking ability of the individual adhesive promotors not only strengthens the adhesive promotor layer, but also can increase the hydrophobicity, which can substantially prevent water from interacting with the surface of the silica die or dielectric component.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional diagram of a semiconductor device using an Embedded Multi-die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB™) architecture. In one example,device 10 is formed fromsubstrate 12 that exhibits an embedded patterneddie 28, which serves as a communication pathway for the functional surface dies 14 and 16.Cover 18 coverssubstrate 12 and dies 14 and 16.Cooling solution 22 such as cooling fins, as shown in this example, are attached to the top ofcover 18. A variety of different cooling solutions may be used such as conductive plates, integrated heat spreaders, liquid cooling, heat pipes, or radiative fins as shown depending on the particular embodiment. Alternatively, the device may be fabricated without the cooling solution and even withoutcover 12. -
Device substrate 12 can include internal low density interconnect routing for communicating between surface dies 14 and 16.Substrate 12 include embedded components of a semiconductor material (e.g., a silicon, gallium, indium, germanium, or variations or combinations thereof) and one or more insulating layers, such as organic based build up film, glass-reinforced epoxy, such as FR-4, polytetrafluorethylene (Teflon), cotton-paper reinforced epoxy (CEM-3), phenolic-glass (G3), paper-phenolic (FR-1 or FR-2), polyester-glass (CEM-5), or any other dielectric layer, that can be used in printed circuit boards (PCBs).Substrate 12 can be made using a bumpless buildup layer process (BBUL) or other technique. A BBUL process includes one or more build-up layers formed around an element, such as a high density interconnect element orbridge 28 or die 14, 16. A micro via formation process, such as laser drilling, can form connections between build-up layers and die bond pads. The build-up layers may be formed using a high-density integration patterning technology. - Dies 14 and 16 can be many types of dies. In one example die can be a memory die and die 16 can be a central processing unit (CPU) die. In other examples both dies 14 and 16 can be memory dies or CPU dies. Dies 14 and 16 are coupled through C4 bumps 24 and vias 26 to a power source outside the device (not shown). While only one pair of C4 bumps 24 is shown for each die, 14, 16 coupled to a single via 26, there may be many connection points for each die 14, 16 coupled through
many vias 26 to connect the dies with the device and to external circuitry. Theoverall package 10 may be connected directly to a printed circuit board (PCB) or coupled to a socket that is attached to some other device such as another (PCB). - Dies 14 and 16 can include low density interconnect pad 42, such as can be used for power, ground, or other electrical coupling. Low density interconnect pad 42 can be electrically coupled, such as through low
density interconnect element 26, to a bus (not shown) such as a power, ground, or data bus. The low density interconnect pad can also be electrically coupled to an electrically conductive pad, such as through conductive adhesive (not shown). The conductive adhesive can be solder (e.g., solder paste), electroplating, or microball, such as a microball configured for flip device interconnect (e.g., controlled collapse device connection (C4) interconnect). - Embedded within the substrate is bridge die 28 also known as an interconnect bridge. Bridge die 28 is made of silicon and has a silica surface. Bridge die 28 connects to CPU die 16 and memory die 14 through 30 and 32 bumps. These connectors, 30 and 32, may be through
solder balls 32, C4 connection areas or any other preferred type of connection to make electrical connection from onedie connectors bridge pad layer 35 on the top of the bridge. Interconnect layers 34 within the bridge make connections between the pins or lands on each die to pins or lands on theother die - In one example, as shown in
FIG. 1 CPU die 16 hasfirst interconnect area 40 closest tomemory 14 for connecting through the embedded bridge die 28 tomemory 14.CPU 16 has second interconnect area 42 for connecting withexternal vias 26 for power and external data input and output. Second interconnect area 42 may be divided into power interconnect areas and data interconnect areas. - Bridge die 28 includes electrically conductive pads at least partially on or in a top surface of bridge die 28. The electrically conductive pads can include conductive metal, such as copper, gold, silver, aluminum, zinc, nickel, brass, bronze, iron, etc.
- In addition,
power rail 36 abovebridge pad layer 35 receives power from outside the device through separate power vias (not shown) and provides this power to thebridge interconnect area 40 of thememory 14 andCPU 16.Power rail 36 may be formed of metal layers deposited printed over thesubstrate 12. - In one example,
dielectric layer 50 can be formed over bridge die 28 andsubstrate 12.Dielectric layer 50 allows for dimensional variations in the placement, and embedding, the bridge and electrically isolates all of the interconnection areas.Dielectric layer 50 can be formed from an epoxy-based resin such as bisphenol A, epoxy resin, a bisphenol F epoxy resin, a novolac epoxy resin, an aliphatic epoxy resin, a glycidylamine epoxy resin, and a glycidylamine epoxy resin, or any other resin including one or more terminal epoxy groups. In some embodimentsdielectric layer 50 includes one layer having a thickness ranging from about 5 microns to about 50 microns or about 15 microns to 45 microns, or from 20 microns to 35 microns or about 30, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 15 microns, 20 microns, 25 microns, 30 microns, 35 microns, 40, microns, or 45 microns. - A surface of
dielectric layer 50 and a surface of bridge die 28 are joined atinterface 52. As stated hereindielectric layer 50 is formed from an epoxy based resin and bridge die 28 is formed from silicon and has a silica surface. Thus,interface 52 is formed from two dissimilar materials. In order to adheredielectric layer 50 and bridge die 28,adhesion promotor 54 layer is applied tointerface 52. As will be described further,adhesion promotor layer 54 is formed from a plurality of silane based adhesion promotor molecules that include a silicon atom bonded to an organic group and three hydroxyl groups. All silane-based adhesion promotor molecules assemble into a monolayer and are bonded thedielectric layer 50 and bridge die 28. In some embodiments,adhesion promotor layer 54 is only located atinterface 52 and is not present on other surface ofdielectric layer 50 or bridge die 28. - As shown in
FIG. 2 , in various embodiments, the present invention provides asemiconductor device 10 including bridge die 28, or other silicon die layer havingfirst silica surface 56.Semiconductor device 10 can includedielectric layer 50 havingsecond surface 58 generally facingfirst silica surface 56.Semiconductor device 10 can includeinterface 52 defined betweenfirst surface 56 andsecond surface 58.Semiconductor device 10 can include silane basedadhesion promoter layer 54 disposed withininterface 52 and bonded to at least one offirst silica surface 56 and the dielectric layersecond surface 58. - In various embodiments, silane based
adhesion promotor layer 54 is bonded to both of the silica diefirst surface 56 and dielectric layersecond surface 58. This forms a monolayer in which each silane based adhesion promotor molecule is bonded to an adjacent adhesion promoter molecule by a siloxane bond.Adhesion promotor layer 54 is bonded to silica diefirst surface 56 by a siloxane bond and is bonded to dielectric layersecond surface 58 though a covalent bond that is formed from a nucleophilic substitution reaction between the nucleophilic group of silane based adhesion promoter molecule and an epoxy group ondielectric layer 50. In other embodiments each silane based adhesion promoter molecule can be attached to surfaces other than silica diefirst surface 56. The adhesion promoter molecule can in fact be used to bond to any hydroxylated surface insemiconductor 10. For example in addition to silicon diefirst surface 56, the adhesion promoter molecules can bond to surface hydroxyl groups of components formed from copper, tin, or other metals or organic materials. - In some embodiments of the present
invention dielectric layer 50 can be formed from multiple layers of material. For example,dielectric layer 50 can be formed from a base layer of epoxy resin or other dielectric layer as described above and further can include a second layer of epoxy-based resin that is bonded to the base layer. The second layer of epoxy based resin can have a thickness ranging from about 1 micron to about 5 microns, or about 2 microns to about 4 microns, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 1.2 microns, 1.4 microns, 1.6 microns, 1.8 microns, 2.0 microns, 2.2 microns, 2.4 microns, 2.6 microns, 2.8 microns, 3.0 microns, 3.2 microns, 3.4 microns, 3.6 microns, 3.8 microns, 4 microns, 4.2 microns, 4.4 microns, 4.6 microns, or 4.8 microns. In some embodiments the adhesion promoting molecules can be bonded to the second layer of epoxy-based resin prior to lamination ofdielectric layer 50 onto bridge die 28. In this manner the second layer of epoxy-based resin serves as a primer layer for adhesion betweendielectric layer 50 and bridge die 28. - Various embodiments of the present invention provide a semiconductor device packaging including an interface between a dielectric substrate layer and a silicon die, such as bridge die 28, having a silica surface including an adhesion promotor forming adhesive promoter layer. The adhesion promoter interface can have the structure:
- The variable A represents one terminal of the adhesion promoter molecule and can be chosen from an organic group such as —O—, and —S—. The variable R4 can be chosen from —H and alkyl groups such as (C1-C20)hydrocarbyl. The variable L can be chosen from a bond and alkyl groups such as (C1-C20)hydrocarbylene. The variable SiSD can be a silicon atom in the silicon die.

In some embodiments the epoxy layer can have a thickness ranging from about 0.5 microns to about 1.5 microns, or about 0.8 to about 1.2 microns, or about 0.5 microns or less, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 0.6 microns, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, or about 1.5 microns or more. In some embodiments the resin layer can be bonded directly to an external surface of the dielectric.
- In some embodiments in which adhesive promoter molecules are first bonded to the polymer R3, the polymer R3 can include any suitable amount of the adhesion promoter, such as about 0.1 to 50 wt % of the polymer, or 30 to 40 wt %, or about 35 wt %, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 22 wt %, 24 wt %, 26 wt %, 28 wt %, 30 wt %, 32 wt %, 34 wt %, 36 wt %, 38 wt %, 40 wt %, 42 wt %, 44 wt %, 46 wt %, or 48 wt %.

FIG. 3 shows an infrared spectra of a semiconductor device without monolayer (absorbance line 60).FIG. 3 also shows a semiconductor device having an adhesion promotor monolayer as described herein (line 62).Line 62 shows an absorption band at approximately 1205 cm−1, which indicates Si—C bond stretching. A Si—C bond is present in some embodiments of the adhesion promotor monolayer but not in a semiconductor device without adhesion promoting monolayer. Thus, the presence of an adhesion promoting monolayer can be confirmed. Additional spectroscopy techniques that can be used to identify whether adhesion promoting monolayer is present include X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF SIMS), Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), wavelength dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDS), inverse gas chromatography (IGC), and pyrolysis gas chromatography (PGC). -
